Valerie J. Borgal is an artist/poet creating art since childhood and writing poetry during her adult life. She has been an elementary and kindergarten teacher, art teacher, and Bible study leader. Her passion is to write about everyday events, spiritual thoughts, adventures, and episodes with people and critters in her life. During her 14 years teaching at Fellowship Christian Academy in Methuen, MA, she would write poems for her students on their birthdays, sometimes using their names to make an acrostic, and including a small original watercolor.
Valerie graduated from the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts – School of Art and Design in the spring of 1967. She married Thomas Borgal in the fall of that year and now resides in Tewksbury, MA.
Val and Tom have two sons, two daughters-in-law, four grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
